DIGITALITY AND VIRTUALITY OF CONTEMPORARY SOCIETY – A DIMENSION AND A CHALLENGE FOR THE HUMAN FOUNDATION OF VALUES
Journal Title: Globalization, the State and the Individual - Year 2018, Vol 2, Issue 2
Abstract
The text presents the thesis of the understanding of digitality and virtuality as hallmarking features of the contemporary world. Their independent existence as distinct realities is a legitimate phenomenon in the development of postmodernity. Digitality and virtuality as elements of a common continuum of significations can only be useful to the person when there is a properly built human foundation of values. Thus, values will serve as guidances to individuals and communities in solving the questions of what and how much to accept from the new realities, as well as in what way, in order to be able to hold on to the human dimension of the world.
